Senior School Goal Setting

Last week senior students started their Goal Setting Process for 2024. Students are to access their Semester 2 (2023) report to identify areas of strength, as well as areas for improvement. Students then access the Senior School Google Site to guide them through this process. Once students complete their reflection, and set their goals, they upload them to a task on SIMON, for their Homeroom. This task can be viewed via PAM.

SeniorSchool@SHC

Senior school is a very busy space for students, especially with the different pathways, different year level activities and requirements. For that reason, SeniorSchool@SHC has been created as a 'One Stop Shop' for all things relating to the Senior School. SeniorSchool@SHC is a Google site which is accessible for all students. It contains information about and link to VCAA, VCE, VCE VM and VETs. The site also contains information for students who wish to change subjects, access  study skills, goal setting and Year Level Information. Parents, carers and/or guardians wishing to view the site can do so by asking their student.

Year 11 Mercy Value: Service opportunities

Living our Mercy values is an important aspect of College life. Year 11 students have several different program opportunities, including the Smith Family: student2student reading program. This program makes a significant difference to the readers. Use the link to find out more about the program: s2s Reading Program. Any Year 11 student who is interested in the program can submit their name to register for this worthwhile program: Smith Family: student2student reading program. Year 11 students also have an opportunity to be involved in the Year 7 Zen Room. Each Tuesday and Friday lunch, H109 is open for our new Year 7 students as a place to spend some time. Year 11 students have an opportunity to spend time with the new Year 7s, playing games and making them feel welcome to the College. Any Year 11 student who is interested in either of these opportunities, please contact Mr Matthews. As the year progresses, more service opportunities will become available.
